Anyone interested in seeing what a terrible human being I am can look here.
I'm curious, what am I supposed to say to people who are talking when it's my turn? This is the only place I can defend myself. Oh, and take notice that the vast majority of my critics posted anonymously.
I sorta hope they put up an opponent for me so I can lay down this job and just start heckling.

We live in a science fiction universe
and this is a great site to find out how science-y and fiction-y it is.
Gill found the site, by the way.

A bit of a constitutional crisis
Okay, so the FBI has been doing something other than look for terrorists. So the FBI, with a warrant, searched the offices of William Jefferson and removed documents. It seems that he has taken bribes from an electronics company that wants to bring broadband to Africa.
First time in history that a congressman's office has been searched in a criminal case.
Then it gets confusing. How do I know who to root for when you can't figure out what's going on?
Jefferson is a Democrat from Louisiana, where corruption is a rite of office. The Congress is in high dudgeon over the separation of powers. There seems to be some rifts in the White House on this, too. Cheney's people want the documents from the Congressman returned. AG Gonzalez has threatened to resign if they are returned. And, as usual, the White House dithers.
Makes you wonder what the documents are about, doesn't it? I mean, if Cheney's people want them returned to Jefferson, that can only mean, considering Cheney's history, that there is something in them would hurt Cheney, right?

He's tan and fit and rested. Gooooooo Gore!!!!
These are the kinds of news stories that the press would do for a future Gore campaign to make up for getting us into this mess to begin with.
Can you imagine:
Gore-Fiengold.
Gore-Kucinich.
Gore-Boxer.
Gore-Richardson?
It's enough to make guy stoned out of his mind on pain killlers look forward to the future.

Democratic Primary in Arkansas
I've got something short of an endoresement for a couple.
Paul Suskie for attorney general. I've come to understand why men's political careers begin around the time they turn 40. You start knowing people that are involved and it spreads like a fungus. In other words, I know him.
Lt. Gov. is a mess: Halter, who is a limousine liberal; Woolridge, about whom I know next to nothing; Hathorne, who is going to windup in the run-off with Halter, I'm pretty sure; and Martin, whom employed for four years at the library. I'll give the nod to Hathorne but I won't demand that people not vote for Jay Martin. He's smart. The thing I'm holding against him is his holier-than-thou version of Christianity.
In my statehouse district, I'm behind Ellison Norith becasue he asked me to be and he's strongly pro-labor.
In Distrcit 37, Gill is the campaign manager of Jerry Larkowski so if I could vote in that one, that's the way I'd go.
Those are my endorsements and none of them are born of deep conviction that the selected candidate is the one who should have the office. Lots of ennui in local politics for me right now.
